To uncover the heritage of hilmor, you have to go back. Way back. We got our start in 1926 in Sheffield, England. We began with just one product – a tube bender. Sure, it sounds simple now, but at the time, hilmor cold-form benders were the first of their kind for plumbers, electricians and HVAC/R technicians. And, it was that one tube bender that allowed us to create a foundation for the company we aspired to be.

Over the years, hilmor has only grown stronger. In turn, we’ve become a strong American-based brand determined more than ever to bring ingenuity to the tools you’ve come to rely on every day. We’ve listened. We’ve learned. We’ve retooled an entire category. Simply put, we’re making it our mission to help you keep your cool even in the most sweltering of conditions. More advancements.
